Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Our two lucky winners as selected by random.org are… Susie (who doesn’t like fish, despite her former employment at Red Lobster) and Sarah (who especially loves Maryland crab, shrimp, salmon, and freshly caught smoked trout). Congrats ladies!

Back when I lived in Brooklyn there was this cool dishware store down the street called Fishs Eddy that I loved. Last Christmas I even bought Sherry two coffee mugs from there. And now, in what can only be called a full circle moment, we’re teaming up with them for a giveaway for you guys. They’ve got tons of fun colorful patterns so we’ve put together three around-$50 prize packages of our favorites: the Food Bank pattern (which benefits the NYC Food Bank), the always-classic 212 New York Skyline pattern, and the playful Charley Harper pattern. So each of our TWO winners will get to pick their favorite collection and take it home.

Fishs Eddy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: One of the following sets of Fishs Eddy dishware: (1) Food Bank set including dishtowel, two mugs, and a set of four sauce dishes, (2) New York Skyline set including salt & pepper shakers, a charger, and a set of four 15oz glasses or (3) Charley Harper set including one fish mug, three fish sauce dishes, and a set of four sunset glasses
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FISH ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …where do you stand on seafood? Have you never met a piece of salmon, fried shrimp, or crabcake you didn’t like? Or do you avoid fish like the plague (perhaps because it tastes “too fishy” or you’re a vegetarian)? Maybe you fall somewhere in the middle and only enjoy specific seafood dishes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 5 at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States & Canada (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fishs Eddy.

    FISH ME! I LOOOVEEE Fishs’ Eddy – I drag my husband in there every time we visit NYC. As for fish, since I live in the Midwest, I don’t trust much seafood here (at least the stuff that fits my budget), but when I get to the coast, watch out! Nothing like fresh seafood.

    being a Maryland native and growing up on the Chesapeake Bay, blue crabs are a summer staple for me. Old Bay seasoning runs in my blood, and I even have a Maryland tattoo sleeve to show my love for my home, which includes a Maryland Blue Crab on my shoulder. :)

    I like some seafood…basic stuff like shrimp and salmon (or most types of white fish fried in batter), and it has to be cooked. I’m not so keen on anything rubbery like oysters or squid though.

    Do not like shrimp, but will eat pretty much anything else more or less western main stream – have not tried sea slugs or eels, but under the right circumstances, would probably give it a try.

    Although I worked at Red Lobster for over 2 years I’ve just recently started to enjoy tilapia. It’s not too fishy or slimey for me. Also in Nova Scotia this summer I tried mussels for the first time and loved them!…much to my picky-seafoodphobic surprise :)

    I absolutely despise seafood. Maybe it was the horrible fish sticks my mother forced us to eat when we were little or because they are slimy and gross. (Calvin, Hobbes, and I have a dislike of slimy things in common.)
